Ginsberg to Read Poetry
SUA, University Library to Sponsor Reading
His Poetry to Students and Faculty
Allen Ginsberg will read his poetry at 4 p.m. Thursday in the Union Ballroom.
His visit is sponsored by the Student Union Activities and University Libraries.
Ginsberg attended Columbia University where he met William Burroughs, whom he said influenced him greatly. "Burroughs educated me more than Columbia, really," he says.
Another important figure Ginsberg met at Columbia was Jack Kerouac, a leader of the Beat Movement of the 1950s.
According to Ginsberg the
most significant event in his life was when he "heard Blake's voice, experienced a sense of lightness of my body and a spiritual illumination of the entire universe as the Great Live Self of the Creator."
published "Howl," the poem that established his poetic talent and popular impact.
After graduation, he worked at a variety of odd jobs and published some poems in "Empty Mirror: Early Poems."
In 1955, Ginsberg broke away from William Carlos Williams' Imagery, and followed a more romantic road.
Since then he has published two books of poems, the latest being "Reality Sandwiches" in 1963.
Richard Kostelanetz, Pulitzer Fellow in Creative Writing at Columbia University has said that Ginsberg's "particular success has been to become the truly popular poet that Whitman only imagined himself to be—the author of lines that live in the heads of the literary young."
Ellsworth Announces Candidacy for Senate
During this period Ginsberg
Rep. Robert F. Ellsworth, R-Kan. from the Third District, announced this morning he will be a candidate for election to the U.S. Senate in the Aug. 3 primary.
Sen. James B. Pearson, R.-Kan. previously announced he would be a candidate for re-election.
ELLSWORTH'S announcement was made late this morning in Lawrence, his home town. Last week, the 39-year-old congressman told reporters he would contest Sen. Pearson. This morning, before driving to Lawrence, he made another formal announcement in Kansas City.
"The overriding issue in the
campaign," said Ellsworth, "will be. activity versus absenteeism."
Ellsworth said he is challenging Pearson's failure to vote and failure to be present on the floor of the Senate. He said that Pearson missed 88 roll-call votes in 1965, 21 of them on final bill passages.
ASKED IF the primary election would split the party. Ellsworth said a vigorous primary with fresh ideas would strengthen the Republicans in Kansas.
Ellsworth graduated from KU in engineering in 1944. He graduated from law school at Michigan in 1949, and served the first of three Congressional terms in 1960.
